Layer 1 · Market Intelligence

Your prospect universe.
Always current.

Generic B2B databases hand you everyone and ask you to filter your way down. ProspectGround starts with your market — and builds a verified, scored prospect universe from the register up. Every field traceable to its source.

The thesis

Start with your market.
Not with a database.

Modern B2B sales runs on a three-layer stack. ProspectGround is the layer most teams are missing — the one that decides which companies are even worth talking to. The one that makes everything above it measurably more effective.

The agents

Five autonomous agents.
One qualified pipeline.

Each step of the pipeline runs as a specialised agent. Deterministic where it must be, AI where it adds value — every output traceable to its source. The platform configures itself; you focus on what to build.

Agent 00ICP Architect

Translate your market
into structured rules.

A guided conversation compiles segments, geographies, scale gates and exclusions into a machine-readable ICP. No preset taxonomy, no rigid form. Every downstream agent then queries the same intent — and the platform helps configure itself as your understanding sharpens.

  • Conversational workbench — describe your market in plain language
  • Segments, tiers, thresholds and geographies compiled to a versioned ICP
  • Updates trigger downstream re-discovery automatically
  • Multi-tenant — different ICP configs per product line, region, or coverage team

Agent 01Discovery

Find the fit,
not the long list.

Every run hits live registers against your ICP. Candidates arrive pre-scored and ranked — no stale exports, no qualification backlog for the SDR team. Lookalike discovery uses your approved accounts as seed: the platform gets sharper with every cycle.

  • Real-time discovery anchored to official registers — not a pre-built static list
  • ICP scoring recalculates automatically when criteria change
  • Lookalike seed from your approved Target Account List
  • Import your own domain list — same enrichment quality guarantee
Agent 02Register

Verify identity
at the source.

Not scraped. Not inferred. Every identity field is matched against an official register — GLEIF, national chambers, financial supervisors — with the source URL attached. Ready for your audit trail. A canonical identity layer across 200+ jurisdictions.

  • Deterministic matching against authoritative registers
  • Vertical-specific register stack — financial, corporate, regulatory
  • Source URL on every identity field
  • Where no authoritative register exists, we build proprietary coverage from primary sources

Agent 03Enrichment

Enrich only what matters
for your ICP.

Deep-research reasoning pulls the fields your ICP actually uses — processed under a Vertex AI commercial contract, no training on your data. Real-time Segment Intelligence captures business model nuance that GICS, SIC and NAICS can't. Every fact carries its source.

  • Vertex AI commercial contract — your data is not used for training
  • ICP-specific scope — no speculative or filler fields
  • Real-time Segment Intelligence — configured per ICP, updated as your market evolves
  • Every value cited — a number without a source URL is a guess
Agent 04Signal

Catch the moment
they're ready.

Regulatory events, leadership moves, legacy-tech end-of-life, M&A, CapEx shifts — Signal watches the triggers that matter for your ICP and hands prioritised accounts to your SDRs, continuously. No more refreshing a list quarterly and hoping.

  • Continuous monitoring across regulators, filings, news, hiring
  • Trigger logic configurable per segment
  • SDR-ready handoff — into Salesforce, HubSpot, Outreach, any CRM
  • Closes the loop — approved accounts feed back into Discovery as lookalike seed

Vertical coverage

Fully covered.
Deepening per vertical.

ProspectGround is vertical-agnostic by architecture and vertical-specific by configuration. Financial Services is our deepest vertical — register stack, segment intelligence and signal logic complete in breadth and depth. Other verticals are fully covered today; depth grows continuously.

Complete · breadth + depth
Financial Services
Sell into the world's regulated financial firms — banks, asset managers, broker-dealers, payments and wealth platforms — with confidence about who they are, what they're licensed for, and how big they really are. Every G-SIB / D-SIB designation and every authorisation status, anchored to the supervisor that issued it.
Anchored to authoritative sources GLEIF · EBA · FCA · BaFin · +30 more

Government & Public Sector
Reach the right ministry, agency, regional authority or regulated utility — without parsing org charts by hand. Procurement profile, mandate scope and structural relationships compiled from public sources, so your reps land at the right buying centre on the first call.

Gambling & Gaming
Target licensed operators and platform suppliers across the right jurisdictions — and only those — without manually cross-checking authorisation status. Live licence states, market footprint and B2B vs. B2C posture surfaced per account, so reps spend their time on operators that can actually buy.

Supply Chain & Logistics
Engage carriers, forwarders, 3PLs and customs intermediaries with a clear read on operational footprint and modal mix — not just a name and a domain. Filter prospects by lanes served, certifications held and trade-association membership, so your pitch lands on the operators it was built for.

Architectural principles

Evidence-grounded by architecture.
Not by policy.

Three commitments built into the platform — not added afterwards. They make ProspectGround safe to deploy in regulated environments and reliable to act on.

01
Source URL on every field.
A number without a source URL is a guess. Every enrichment field — identity, regulatory, financial, signals — is backed by a permanent, verifiable link to the originating document or register entry. Audit trail by construction.
02
GDPR-friendly by architecture.
No personal data ever lands in the pipeline. ProspectGround handles legal entities — companies, registrations, designations, financials — and hands your team straight through to the right buying centre inside the contact tools they already use. A GDPR-friendly bridge from Layer 1 to Layer 2: operational, never extractive.
03
Vertex AI commercial.
Reasoning runs under a Google Cloud Vertex AI commercial contract. Your data is not used to train foundation models. The platform is deterministic where it must be, AI where it adds value — never both at once.
Honest answers

Things buyers ask us
before they sign.

01 Isn't this just a better ZoomInfo?
No — they live on different layers of the stack. ZoomInfo, Apollo, Cognism are contact intelligence: who works where, with what title, and how to email them. That's Layer 2. ProspectGround is Layer 1: which companies are even your market in the first place. Most teams use both. We make the contact-intelligence tools you already have measurably more effective by feeding them a verified, scored account universe instead of a long list to filter through.
02 What if my vertical isn't in your list?
The platform is vertical-agnostic by design. Financial Services is our deepest vertical because we built the segment intelligence and register stack for it first; Government, Gambling and Logistics are live and deepening. Every other vertical is supported through the same architecture — we configure the segment logic and authoritative sources for your ICP during onboarding. If your vertical is in our roadmap, we'll tell you directly. If it isn't, we'll tell you that too.
03 How is "evidence-grounded" different from normal AI enrichment?
A standard AI enrichment returns a value. Evidence-grounded enrichment returns a value and the source URL the value was derived from. Every field on every prospect — total assets, licence status, leadership change, regulatory event — links back to the originating document or register entry. If a number doesn't have a source, it doesn't ship. That's an architectural commitment, not a marketing line: deterministic where it must be, AI where it adds value, never both at once.
04 Does this replace my SDR tooling?
No. Sequencers, dialers, CRMs — Outreach, Salesloft, Salesforce, HubSpot — keep their place. ProspectGround sits upstream and feeds them a better starting point: a scored TAL with verified identity, current designations, and active buying signals. Your SDRs spend their time on accounts that fit, not on filtering a database down to those that might.
05 How does GDPR work — you mention "no personal data"?
ProspectGround handles legal entities only. We never store names, emails, phone numbers or any other personal identifier. We bridge cleanly to the contact tools your team already uses for the people layer — keeping ProspectGround GDPR-friendly by architecture, not by policy. Your DPIA gets shorter, not longer.
06 How fast can we be operational?
A first ICP and a verified TAL come together in your first session — typically a single working day end-to-end. Discovery and enrichment run continuously after that; signals start hitting your CRM within the first week. There is no months-long data-onboarding project: the registers are already live, the agents already configured.

Start with your market.
Not a database.

Early access is open for teams ready to rebuild their pipeline from the register up. We'll set up a working ICP and a verified TAL in your first session.
